Blue Gold & Black: From Doorway to Distinction

This video documentary, which includes perspectives from alumni, faculty, and staff members, tells the story of the 180-year experience of African Americans at the University of Pittsburgh. A reception and screening of the documentary comprised Pitt's 2009 K. Leroy Irvis Black History Month Program, named for the former Pennsylvania Speaker of the House and 1954 Pitt law graduate.
